Allied Gaming & Entertainment Inc.

We may be subject to litigation from stockholders, suppliers and other third parties from time to time. Such litigation may have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations or may cause disruptions to our operations. As discussed in more detail below, Knighted Pastures, LLC (“Knighted”) recently filed a complaint against, among other defendants, us and the members of our Board of Directors. We expect to incur additional costs to defend such litigation which may cause our management to divert attention and resources from our business operations. In addition, the complaint states that Knighted seeks to nominate directors to AGAE’s Board and effect certain changes with respect to the business and management of AGAE. In the event directors nominated by Knighted are elected to our board of directors, such directors may disagree with the strategic directions of the Company or otherwise take actions that may adversely affect the interest of our shareholders.

Knighted Pastures, LLC

On March 7, 2024, Knighted Pastures, LLC (“Knighted”), an AGAE stockholder, filed a complaint captionedKnighted Pastures, LLC v. Yangyang Li, et al., C.A. No. 2024-0222 in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware against us, the members of our Board of Directors, and certain additional defendants (the “Knighted Action”). The complaint alleges, among other things, that the members of our Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duty in connection with (1) the approval of a Share Purchase Agreement that AGAE entered into on or around December 28, 2023, (2) the approval and adoption of certain amendments to AGAE’s Bylaws on or around January 5, 2024, and (3) the approval and adoption of a rights agreement on or around February 8, 2024. The Knighted Action seeks both injunctive reliefs and money damages. We believe the claims in the Knighted Action lack merit and intend to defend against them vigorously.
